Outcomes of Anesthesia-Supported versus Endoscopist-Driven Sedation Modalities: A retrospective cohort study.

These were substantially lower than the rates for other sedation groups, and odds ratios were significantly lower than 1.00 (p<0.05) in 30 out of 36 comparisons across procedural, sedative, and outcome categories. Sedation achieved with Midazolam/Fentanyl correlated with a lower rate of adverse events but significantly longer PACU LOS compared to Propofol, Propofol + Adjuvants, or General Anesthesia.

The effect of the timing of endoscopic detorsion on clinical outcomes in patients with sigmoid volvulus.

In vitro microbiota model recapitulates and predicts individualised sensitivity to dietary emulsifier.

Transplant of human microbiotas that the MBRA model deemed CMC-sensitive, but not those deemed insensitive, into IL-10-/- germfree mice resulted in overt colitis following CMC feeding. These results suggest that an individual's sensitivity to emulsifier is a consequence of, and can thus be predicted by, examining their baseline microbiota, paving the way to microbiota-based personalised nutrition.

Phosphoproteomics delineates hepatocellular carcinoma subtypes and pinpoints therapeutic targets.

The corresponding drug, bosutinib, demonstrated efficacy in inhibiting the growth of subtype C tumors in liver cancer cell lines and HCC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models representative of the phosphoproteomic HCC subtypes. Our study provides a comprehensive exploration of the phosphoproteomic landscape of HCC, establishing new subtypes that match clinical features and identifying potential therapeutic targets for the most malignant C subtype.

TIGIT-expression on natural killer cell subsets is an early indicator of alleviating liver inflammation following bulevirtide treatment in chronic hepatitis D.

We here suggest that lacking the expression of the immune checkpoint inhibitor TIGIT on NK cell subtypes may be a hallmark of liver inflammation in HDV infection. BLV-therapy is associated with a reappearance of TIGIT on these cells, which may be one mechanism of why liver enzymes rapidly improve during therapy.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound-based AI model for multi-classification of focal liver lesions.

CEUS-based Model -DCB provides accurate multi-classification of FLLs. It holds promise to benefit a wide range of population, especially for patients in remote suburban areas who have difficulty accessing MRI. Impact and implications Ultrasound is the most common image examination for screening focal liver lesions (FLLs), but it lacks accuracy for multi-classification, which is the prerequisite for reasonable management. Contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) offers better diagnostic performance, but highly relies on work experience of radiologists. We develop a CEUS-based model (Model -DCB ) can assist junior CEUS radiologists to achieve comparable diagnostic ability to senior CEUS radiologists and senior MRI radiologists. The combination of ultrasound device, CEUS examination and Model -DCB enables even patients in remote areas to obtain excellent diagnostic performance through examination by junior radiologists. Clinical trial NCT04682886.

GRINA alleviates hepatic ischemia‒reperfusion injury-induced apoptosis and ER-phagy by enhancing HRD1-mediated ATF6 ubiquitination.

Our study highlights the critical role of the GRINA-HRD1-ATF6 complex in regulating ER stress and autophagy during HIRI. These findings provide new insights into therapeutic strategies to alleviate HIRI. Impact and implications HIRI represents a multifaceted pathophysiological challenge commonly encountered during liver surgeries, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms remain inadequately understood. In this study, we revealed a significant negative correlation between GRINA levels and the severity of liver damage in patients with HIRI. Our findings demonstrate that GRINA alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress by enhancing HRD1-mediated ubiquitination of ATF6, thereby maintaining calcium homeostasis and inhibiting ER-phagy. This study provides novel insights into the role of GRINA in protecting liver cells under HIRI, offering fresh perspectives for clinical prevention and management strategies for HIRI.

Hepatocellular CMPK2 promotes the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.

These findings establish CMPK2 as a critical mediator in the progression from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver (MASL) to MASH and highlight its potential as a therapeutic target for metabolic diseases. Impact and implications CMPK2 exhibits upregulated in the MASH stage but not in the early stages of MASLD. Our study demonstrated that diet-induced MASH phenotypes, including liver injury, inflammation, and fibrosis were alleviated in hepatocyte-specific Cmpk2-knockout mice. These findings suggest that CMPK2 serve as a critical link in the progression of steatotic liver to steatohepatitis, offering novel mechanistic insights MASH development. Furthermore, this discovery identified CMPK2 as a promising target for the development of therapeutic drugs for MASH.

Prognostic performance of the two-step clinical care pathway in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.

Non-invasive 2-step approach by FIB-4 followed by LSM is effective in classifying patients at different risks of LREs. Impact and implications Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is emerging as one of the leading causes of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma worldwide, but only a minority of patients will develop these complications. Therefore, it is necessary to use non-invasive tests instead of liver biopsy for risk stratification. Additionally, as most patients with MASLD are seen in primary care instead of specialist settings, cost and availability of the tests should be taken into consideration. In this multicentre study, the use of Fibrosis-4 index followed by liver stiffness measurement by vibration-controlled transient elastography effectively identified patients who would later develop liver-related events. The results support current recommendations by various regional guidelines on a clinical care pathway based on non-invasive tests to diagnose advanced liver fibrosis.
